> Anthropic only has an official extension for VS Code.

That likely seems incorrect as I see Claude Code listed on open-vsx with:

* An "Anthropic" "Verified publisher" badge

* igorkofman listed who seems to be an Anthropic employee

* 63M downloads

* Reviews going back >1 year

And it is linked to here: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/vs-code (or, well, the URI doesn't tell us if it's using a proxied version or not, so it's complicated)
